Barcodes don't show up in PDF format

Hi Tim, Everyone...
Well recently I started the testing to print barcodes in the documents and reports where we need them.
I did all the needed set up (Tim, your posts for Barcodes 101 and 102 are very helpful): I upload the font, set the family fonts... I even set in the template properties my fonts and all.
HOWEVER... when I try the PDF version, the barcodes don't show up... for EXCEL, HTML, etc, they do, but no for PDF.
Any thoughts about what could be going on?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Something to check is that the Font Family Name in the Font Administration when you create the font in XMLP, MUST BE exactly the same as the name of the font when it is selected in MS Word. If it is not, then XMLP will not know what font to pick up.
Please check that this is correct in your situation.
Kind Regards,
Cj

Inserting Images and Logos - works in the edit mode, but does not save nor show in final PDF format - help?

I have tried several times - but when I load a logo or image in to a form template - it shows up on the template in edit mode but when I save it for PDF final format and use - the image or logo disappears. What I am doing wrong?

Is this a form that you're creating in FormsCentral?

Special fonts don't show up in PDFs

I created some free printables for teachers and homeschoolers a while back that use special fonts (wingdings). The fonts are Open Source fonts from DaFont.com. Some of the fonts are not showing up as they should. They come up as plain letters instead of the wingdings. I created the PDFs in InDesign CS5. What can I do to fix this?
Here's a link to the page with the printables I created:
Before You Speak: THINK Free Printables
I'm having the most trouble with the wingdings below the word THINK not showing up properly.
Thanks for your help.

Hyperlinks in FM don't show up in PDF

Hello,
I created hyperlinks in a FrameMaker file, but when I converted it to PDF, the links were not included. (Note: I do this conversion by first printing to a postscript file, and then running the Distiller on the .ps file.)
Is there something else I need to do in FrameMaker? Or can I create the hyperlinks in Acrobat (I have the full-blown Acrobat program.)
Thanks,
Joyce

The way to get your links working nis:
1) Use the Save As ... (PDF) or in FM80 Save As PDF.
This automatically invokes the correct AdobePDF printer and the FM functionalities are processed into links
2) When printing to a PS file (ordinary print), make sure you choose a PS printer (or Adobe PDF) and then select "Generate Acrobat Data".
In the FM Help you can get a more in depth explanation of which FM functions are transferred into what kind of PDF links etc. (Search for:"Hypertext commands in HTML and PDF documents"
And while I am at it: check out www.microtype.com. At Microtype you'll find the undisputable best way of getting FM functions into cool PDF's (forms, jumps, pop-ups, videos etc.).

Rollover areas slow to show in html/pdf format

Hi
I have a series of rollover shapes with text appearing when the user hovers over the shapes. However when viewing the learning in pdf/html it takes a good 10 seconds or longer for the rollover function to appear, if at all. It's only happening with this one slide which only consists of shapes and rollovers. Any ideas?
Thanks
Not currently allowing me to upload image to support this questionl... will continue trying

Perhaps something on your slide has become corrupted.
Take a backup copy of your project, then try this:
Create a new blank project CPTX of the same dimensions as your current project and copy/paste all slides into the new shell project. Then test to see if the issue remains in the new project.
If it does remain, try dragging groups of objects off stage into the scrap area so that they will not be published with the output and test publish again to see if removing certain objects seems to resolve the issue.
If there are any Advanced Actions on this slide, delete them and see if that makes a difference.
Let us know how this works out.

Smartforms PDF format

Hi Experts,
Is their any options available to show smartforms in PDF format from standard transactions like vf02, without changing the Driver program.
I assigned in NACE transaction as smartform type as PDF but inspite of that the smartform is not coming in pdf format.
Please help me.
Thanks & Regards

hi,
There is a way to download smartform in PDF format.
Please do the following:
1. Print the smartform to the spool.
2. Note the spool number.
3. Download a PDF file (Acrobat Reader) version of the spool by running Program RSTXPDFT4 and entering the noted spool number.
or.
Migrating a PDF-Based Print Form
 1. Go to the Smart Forms initial screen (transaction SMARTFORMS).
 2. Choose Utilities> Migration> Interactive Form--> Export.
 3. In the dialog box, enter the name of the Smart Form that you want to migrate, the name of the PDF-based target form, and the target interface. The system suggests the name of the Smart Form as the name for the target form and target interface. You can change these names. The target form and the target interface can have different names.
 4. Choose Continue.
 5. The system displays the Settings dialog box where you can flag various options for migration. To activate the selected options and close the dialog box, choose Continue.
To view additional information about a particular option, select the option, and press F1.
 6. In the dialog box Create Object Directory Entry, enter a package for the interface, or save it as a local object.
 7. Assign the form to a package, or save the form as a local object.
 8. The system migrates the form.
 9. If no errors occur during the migration, you can activate the new interface and the PDF-based form. If you see an error message, read Migration with Errors or Warnings below.
Activating an Interface and PDF-Based Print Form
If the form was migrated without errors, the system returns a corresponding message. You now have a PDF-based form (consisting of a form and interface) that you can edit. Initially, migrated forms and interfaces are always inactive and therefore have to be activated before a call can be made from the application.
To activate or edit the form, choose Utilities> Migration>Interactive Form-->Edit.
The system displays the initial screen of the form builder for PDF-based forms. After you have activated the form, you can "switch runtime" as described below.
Switching Runtime
To call the PDF-based form from the application without changes to the ABAP program and formal parameters, proceed as follows:
 1. Choose Utilities>Migration> Interactive Form-->Switch Runtime.
 2. In the dialog box Switch Runtime, enter the name of the Smart Form and the name of the PDF-based form. In the Runtime Type field, select the form that you want to output at runtime.
 3. If the PDF form is assigned to a transportable package, you have to assign the runtime switch to a transport request. If this is the case, the system automatically displays a corresponding dialog box.
Migration with Errors or Warnings
If errors or warnings occurred during migration, and the Smart Form was migrated only partially or not at all, a log is displayed. This log is written to the application log and is kept in the system for a week.
To display the log within this time period, choose Utilities>Migration>Interactive Form-->Display Log.
A log is generated for each migration run. If you migrate a Smart Form more than once, you receive multiple logs. Select a log to see the list of the properties that were not or only partially migrated. Each message in the log starts with the node name from the Smart Form, which enables you to identify the source of the error in the form.
regards,
Ashokreddy.

Bar Code don't show in PDF output

Hi,
I am trying to generate a BI publisher report from Oracle APEX with some text as Bar codes.
The report runs perfectly when run from BI publisher but when its run from APEX The Barcodes dont show when I select the output format as .pdf.
I tested for other output formats available in APEX like Word, Excel,HTML then the output is generated correctly with barcodes. Problem is only with PDF. Please help.

It's actually not that bad. That kind of corruption means that the program has got the wrong information about the size and height of the image.
For instance, if you had Peter's Avatar, which is a 46x46 image:
And you somehow thought it was 23x96 image, it would look like this:
and it looks like that's what's going on.
Save your image.
Open in Photoshop.
Save as a Portable Bit Map.
Open in a good editor, like Emacs.
The top of the file looks like this:
P6
46
46
255
Mess with the dimensions (46x46) until you get it right.
There's probably a better tool for this, but that's one.

I created a brochure in pages and exported it to a pdf format. The pdf looks and opens perfectly using preview but when opened in adobe reader (which my printer uses), fonts look odd, transparencies don't display...etc. Tells me error exists on page?

I created a brochure in pages and exported it to a pdf format. The pdf looks and opens perfectly using preview but when opened in adobe reader (which my printer uses), fonts look odd, transparencies don't display...etc. Tells me error exists on page?

Does this essentially mean there is no way to fix this problem on my end? It's a pity because the design and branding of my brochure will suffer if I remove transparencies and use different fonts. It also concerns me moving forward because it means the quality of print on my pieces will be significantly lower because most commercial printers use Adobe products.

While in PDF format it is showing some starting fields only

Hi All,
I created sample report and build Layout template in word doc.
I uploded RTF template into Report & given output format in Exel&Pdf.
When i view the output for Exel format is OK
While in PDF format it is showing some starting fields only
(I can move downword direction but i can't to move Right direction ie X-axis)
How can i solve this prob.
Awaiting for Reply....
Subbu..

Make sure you are designing the template while in the Print Layout, not Web Layout (View menu, or switches in the bottom left hand side of the Word window). In the web layout (which Excel uses) the page can expand to the right, while in the print layour (which PDF uses) only those fields will be seen that fit into physical page size.
